Wow you guys' cars really hard on batteries. My previous car, Myvi I think only changed battery twice over the 7 years plus I owned it. The 2 batteries lasted on average 2.5 years.
I drove that car 5 days a week for work more less, about an hour a day of commuting.
Woooo... don't compare with Myvi. All cars I used before (even still use now), which is Kancil, Old Saga, Saga BLM the battery only change in 2-2.5 years too. Not much electrical/electronic stuff in those car. In locked mode, only 1 alarm sensor is in standby mode to received remote signal. In Honda, there is 5 or 6 remote sensors running all the time in locked mode, also there is ultrasonic sensor inside the car.I drove that car 5 days a week for work more less, about an hour a day of commuting.
When the car is running, even the HU in OFF mode, the HU still consume the power, the HU screen always ON. Honda car use a lots of electronic inside.

Follow these easy steps:
First, make sure your car is turned off for safety’s sake. You’ll be touching the battery, so it’s best to turn it off.
Find the battery and remove the terminals. You’ll need a wrench to help you remove them. Remove the negative terminal first, then the positive one.
Check for any damage to your battery. While you’re in there, you might as well make sure there’s no bulging, cracking or warping present on your battery. These are signs you may need to replace your battery.
You’ll see a white substance on the terminals and inside the cable clamps.This is the material that needs to be removed. Now you’ll need a few materials: a toothbrush, water, baking soda, steel wool, a cloth or towel for drying, and petroleum jelly.
Mix a very small amount of water with some of the baking soda in a lid or small dish. Then, use the toothbrush to apply the paste to the terminals and clamps. Scrub thoroughly until the white substance disappears. If necessary, you can make use of steel wool to help remove the corrosion. Pay special attention to the insides of the clamps in order to ensure that your battery connection will be the best possible.
Dry everything off with a towel or cloth.
Add some petroleum jelly to the terminals and the clamps. This will help prevent future corrosion.
Reconnect the battery, connecting the positive terminal first, then the negative one.
